It measures 0.28 inches in outside diameter and 0.413 inches in free length, making it a compact component suited for tight-tolerance assemblies. The spring carries a maximum work load of 20.01 pounds and a spring rate of 19.85 inch-pounds, delivering consistent return force across its compression range. Closed ends provide stable seating and reduce lateral movement during operation. Licensed technicians and mechanical assemblers working in HVAC, plumbing, or industrial equipment applications install this type of spring as a replacement or service component in valve assemblies, actuators, and control mechanisms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis compression spring is intended for use in applications requiring a small-diameter, short-travel spring with precise load characteristics. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion, making it suitable for wet, humid, or chemically exposed environments common in plumbing and HVAC service work. The solid height of 0.205 inches and closed end design allow consistent stacking and predictable deflection behavior in high-cycle assemblies. The package quantity is 3 units per order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision spring type with consistent load and rate tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel material for corrosion resistance in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed end design for stable seating and reduced lateral deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum work load of 20.01 pounds with a spring rate of 19.85 inch-pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 0.28-inch outside diameter fits tight-clearance assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlain finish with silver color for easy visual identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement precision compression spring for valves, actuators, and mechanical control assemblies requiring a 0.28-inch outside diameter closed-end spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of compression springs in valve and actuator assemblies is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or qualified mechanical assemblers. Shut off all system pressure and de-energize any associated electrical components before disassembly. Verify seating surfaces are clean and free of debris before installing the spring to ensure proper compression alignment. Consult the original equipment manufacturer service documentation for assembly sequence and torque requirements specific to the host equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.28 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.413 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.205 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0315 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Work Load\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19.85 inch-pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161904\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GARDNER SPRING\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MC050-0105-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GARDNER SPRING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52016987636018,"sku":"MC050-0105-S","price":15.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8feb6635002eca8f32a37e76df40c001.jpg?v=1790009065","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gardner-spring-mc050-0105-s-compression-spring-0-28in-od","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
